[Project No. 11433-016]
Madison Electric Works; Notice of Availability of Environmental Assessment
May 2, 2006.
In accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969
and the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's (Commission)
regulations, 18 CFR Part 380 (Order No. 486, 52 F.R. 47897), the Office
of Energy Projects has prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) for an
application requesting Commission approval for surrender of minor
project license and dam removal of the 547 kilowatt Sandy River Project
(FERC No. 11433). The project is located on the Sandy River in the
Towns of Norridgewock and Starks, Somerset County, Maine.
The EA contains the staff's analysis of the potential environmental
impacts of the project and concludes that the surrender of license and
dam removal would not constitute a major federal action that would
significantly affect the quality of the human environment.
A copy of the EA is attached to the May 1, 2006 Commission Order
titled ``Order Approving Surrender of License with Dam Removal,'' which
is available for review and reproduction at the Commission's Public
Reference Room, located at 888 First Street, NE., Room 2A, Washington,
DC 20426. The EA may also be viewed on the Commission's Web site at
http://www.ferc.gov
using the ``eLibrary'' link. Enter the
docket number (prefaced by P-) in the docket number field to access the
document. For assistance, contact FERC On Line Support at
FERCOnlineSupport@ferc.gov or call toll free at (866) 208-3676, or for
TTY contact (202) 502-8659.
For further information, please contact Andrea Shriver at (202)
502-8171.
Magalie R. Salas,
Secretary.
